ankle is fine. side effect of going off prednisone. Swelling is pretty much down today anyways, though it's still sore. Prednisone also seems to be why I shot up 20 pounds in the last six weeks. Doctor want me drinking more water and staying away from simple carbohydrates until my metabolism evens out again. Water is doable, simple c-words? well. Let's put it this way - had a plate of carbonara for dinner. *sigh* yeah. I don't do well with the whole concept of "diet" to the point of being almost morally against them. But I _do_ want to drop a little weight, and I guess one has to start somewhere.
speaking of carbonara, yeah, that new Arizona Pizza place in the mall? Good stuff. I've been there twice now. Ask for Jamie to be your server, he's a sweetheart. In other news, I think I may try my hand at making carbonara later on this week. I've been researching recipes. Will let y'all know how it comes out.
I has new mattress pad for my bed! One of those memory foam pads, that hopefully will change my bed from concrete slab into yumtastic squashy cloudness. This means an excuse to wash all my bedding, lol. And see if I can get my bedframe back together on my own. I've got a hammer and a fair amount of arm strength, I should be able to manage.
Dragons: ^^ ^^ ^^
I have Jury Duty on Monday. eep. Never had/done that before, I mostly hear it's a whole lot of nothing, but still for some reason nerved by it.
I think I may have to reinstate the "five positive things" post per day. In the words of the Andrews Sisters, one has to Ac-Cent-Tchu-Ate the Positive.
